At Work

forthcoming, Cornerstone Press - University of Wisconsin Stevens Point​​

Essays, coming of age, feminist, work, Midwest, late 90s 

​

At Work, a collection of interconnected essays, traces a young woman’s journey from anxiety to curiosity as she seeks to identify herself through the lens of myriad working-class roles in the 90s and early 00s. Her experiences, from bussing tables to working factory lines, weave a tapestry of magic from the fibrous normalcy of repetitive tasks—so many clocked hours in such quiet corners of Ohio. It will be out in 2027.

Chaos Magic

In a tale blending magic, danger, and the weight of choices, a woman's rebuilt life is threatened by her ex-husband's release from prison. She uses magic to do what she must.​​

"Surprisingly magical and magically surprising, Chaos Magic is masterful, artful, and filled with beautifully rendered prose. A must read!" —Kim Chinquee, author of Pipette â€‹

"Abuse victims conquer their fears with equal parts magic and friendship in this occult-tinged feminist revenge novel." —Kirkus

Sometimes the bad spells are tempting.

We Arrive Uninvited

When Emerson was twelve, she was enamored by her grandmother Amelia and believed that what others saw as eccentricity or mental illness was instead a misunderstood gift.

"We Arrive Uninvited is not just a novel about mental illness—it’s about empathy, survival, and the ways women navigate the world’s attempts to silence them in the name of embracing one’s full self."  ​

"A talented writer exhibiting her intuition, Knox understands that our greatest fear is loneliness. In We Arrive Uninvited, she gifts us with myriad ways to find a cure."  —Tara Lynn Masih, author of How We Disappear (Florida Book Award recipient) and My Real Name Is Hanna
